2. The R.S.P.C.A For all Creatures Great and Small

3. What is The R.S.P.C.A ?? The R.S.P.C.A stands for “The Royal Protection for the Cruelty to Animals”. The RSPCA mission is that all areas of the community will recognise that the RSPCA acts on behalf of all animals, large or small. The RSPCA is Australia's main animal welfare organisation. They try to protect all animals who experience cruelty and are not looked after. The RSPCA has 26 branches, 28 inspectors, fully equipped veterinary hospitals and a state wide shelter network (the pound), with 200 staff in NSW to care for animals. The RSPCA needs to raise $25 million to cover annual (yearly) operating costs and so the RSPCA relies mainly on donations, money left in wills, membership and investments to operate.
